Introduction¶
Applications¶
We have over 2,000 applications installed on HiPerGator, with more being added every day. These applications are available to all HiPerGator users and span fields such as bioinformatics, chemistry, physics, engineering, artificial intelligence, data science, and more. The tools inside each app can help you interact with your data and complete intense computations. Please see the Installed Applications page for a list of every app we currently have installed. You can load each one my running
module load appname
. Please see the Modules System page for more detailed information.
Tip
Need to use an app that isn’t listed? Submit a support request and our team can assist with custom installations or updates.
Conda¶
To assist in installing packages locally, we recommend using Conda. Conda environments allow for easier management of project specific resources. It also allows for the ability to safely
pip install
. Most project documentations recommend using pip for package installation. But this can interfere with OpenOnDemand, HPG config and personal modules. Conda solves this issue by combining compiled packages, applications, and libraries as well as pip-installed python packages. You can view our detailed steps to configure and create your own Conda Environment on the Conda Configuration page.
Licenses¶
For apps that require a license, we recommend using the UF Software Licensing Service or purchasing the software licenses directly from vendors/resellers. UFIT does not purchase licenses on behalf of researchers. You can see more detailed information on our Licensing page.
